Defence AI & Autonomous Systems
A defence technology company building autonomous AI systems for navigation, intelligence, and operations.
A defence technology company building autonomous AI systems for navigation, intelligence, and operations.
Cacciamani Ltd is an Edinburgh-based defence technology company building AI systems for navigation, autonomy, and intelligence.
Our core IP is BroodNexus — a reinforcement learning engine that powers every system in the Cacciamani family.
Every product carries a Latin name — a deliberate choice. These are not brand names. They are descriptions of what each system does.
Four systems. One engine. Each product in the Cacciamani family is powered by BroodNexus — but each solves a distinct problem.
The name combines Brood — a group operating as one, a swarm with shared purpose — and Nexus, Latin for connection. BroodNexus is the intelligence that binds autonomous agents into a coordinated whole.
A reinforcement learning engine with 887,000+ training episodes. Multiple agents coordinating autonomously without central command. BroodNexus is not a product — it is the foundation every Cacciamani system is built on.
The eagle does not need landmarks to navigate. It reads the terrain, feels the wind, and knows exactly where it is. Aquila is named for this — a navigation system that reads the world itself, not signals that can be jammed.
A GNSS-denied navigation system built on BroodNexus, allowing any MAVLink-compatible drone to navigate without GPS, anywhere, with no pre-deployed infrastructure. Output: standard MAVLink GPS_INPUT. Zero modification to the flight controller.
In Rome, the Consul was the highest authority — an elected leader whose role was to advise, decide, and command. Consul carries that meaning precisely. It advises. It synthesises information and puts the right decision in front of the right person.
A professional-grade AI assistant built for serious work. Capable of deep technical analysis, strategic briefings, document drafting, and decision support across defence, engineering, and business contexts.
Vigilo means to watch without rest. In Roman usage, the Vigiles were the night watchmen — those who stayed awake so others could sleep. Vigilo watches so you do not have to.
An AI-powered intelligence monitoring platform. Vigilo continuously watches defence tenders, funding calls, competitor news, and regulatory updates — delivering a clean daily digest. Built for teams who cannot afford to miss a signal.
Every system in the Cacciamani family carries a Latin name. This is not a branding choice — it is a design principle. Latin names are functional descriptions: precise, unambiguous, and immune to trend.
BroodNexus — the binding core. Aquila — the eagle, which navigates without landmarks. Consul — one who advises and commands. Vigilo — I watch. I stay awake.
These names were chosen because they have survived two thousand years. The systems they describe are built to the same standard.
Cacciamani has submitted a funding application to the UK Defence and Security Accelerator for the Aquila GNSS-denied navigation system. Decision pending.
Cacciamani Ltd formally established in Edinburgh, Scotland. Active development underway across BroodNexus, Aquila, and Consul.
This news feed will be one of the first live deployments of Vigilo — our upcoming AI intelligence monitor. When launched, Vigilo will automatically surface and digest updates like these, so nothing gets missed.
Cacciamani is actively seeking engagement with defence agencies, investors, and research partners. All enquiries treated with full confidentiality.
